Blood Moon Wolf. Trapped by a curse. Driven by vengeance. Bound to darkness. Elias, once a nobleman, now a creature of the night, is a man whose soul is torn between his human self and the beast he has become. Cursed by an ancient and powerful magic, he is doomed to transform into a werewolf under the full moon, bound to the very darkness that now consumes him. What was once a life of privilege and power has been replaced by a nightmare of savage violence and torment. The tragedy that began his descent into this monstrous fate was not only the death of his beloved but the betrayal by those he trusted most. With the death of his family came the cold realization that the very world he once ruled had been a lie. His enemies, masked as allies, left him with nothing-no hope, no purpose, only a burning desire for vengeance. The curse they placed upon him is both his punishment and his weapon, leaving Wagner to battle not only the beasts within but the very forces that orchestrated his downfall. The first chapter of his nightmare begins when, under the full moon, Elias transforms into the beast for the first time-his senses heightened, his instincts sharp, his mind clouded by bloodlust. The man who once held the power to command armies is now nothing more than a slave to the moon's pull, caught between the man he once was and the monster he has become. With every passing transformation, the beast's control grows stronger, and Elias's humanity slips further away. But Elias's story is more than just a tale of revenge; it's one of love lost and love found, of light battling against the ever-present darkness. After years of wandering the shadows, consumed by rage and guilt, Elias encounters a mysterious woman whose presence stirs something within him-a memory of the love he once lost. She is unlike any woman he has ever known, intelligent, fierce, and perhaps the key to his salvation. But their love is doomed from the start, for the beast inside Elias cannot be contained, and the man he was will always be at war with the wolf he has become. In a world where politics, ancient cults, and forgotten gods hold sway, Elias must navigate a path filled with enemies both old and new. An ancient cult, whose secrets date back centuries, offers Elias a chance at redemption-or destruction. But their help comes at a steep price: his soul. The leader of the cult, a figure both charismatic and terrifying, seems to hold all the answers Elias seeks-but are they truly answers, or just more lies? As Elias delves deeper into the dark underworld of this cult, he begins to question everything he thought he knew about his curse-and about himself. The cult isn't the only shadowy organization pursuing their own goals. A rival faction, equally mysterious and dangerous, sees Elias as a tool to be manipulated. With each encounter, Elias is forced to question who he can trust and whether his own quest for revenge is merely feeding into a larger game, one where he is nothing more than a pawn. As Elias's power grows and the full moon draws nearer, the battle between his human and monstrous sides intensifies. He becomes both hunter and hunted, with every decision carrying greater consequences. The woman he loves fears him, not because of the man he is, but because of the beast he has become. Their love becomes a bittersweet hope, a fleeting moment of tenderness in a world consumed by darkness. But with each passing night, the curse tightens its grip on him. Elias knows that he can never be truly free of it-unless he is willing to sacrifice everything. But can he truly sacrifice the one thing that makes him human? Can he face the truth of his past and embrace the monstrous future that awaits him? The answers lie within the very heart of the curse, deep within the ancient rituals that bind his fate. To break the curse, Elias must venture deeper into the realm of the unknown, where the lines between the living and the dead blur. He must confront not only the darkness within but also the hidden truths about his bloodline, the very lineage that brought him to this point. What will it cost him to break the chains that bind him? Will he sacrifice his love, his soul, or even his life in a final attempt to regain his humanity? Or will he embrace the beast fully, allowing it to consume him entirely, becoming the very monster he once feared? As Elias's journey unfolds, it becomes clear that his fate is tied to something much greater than himself. The curse that haunts him is but a small part of a far-reaching conspiracy-one that spans generations, weaving together the lives of kings, gods, and monsters alike. To break free, Elias must face not only the forces that cursed him but the deeper, darker secrets that threaten to unravel everything he thought he knew. In the end, Elias is faced with a choice that will determine his fate: will he continue down the path of vengeance, or will he finally break the curse that binds him?
The night howled with fury. Thunder rolled like an angry beast through the skies. Lightning slashed the heavens in jagged bursts, illuminating the gnarled silhouette of Eryndor's Black Forest. The wind screamed through the trees, bending massive oaks and tossing firs as if they were twigs. Even the streams, once melodic, now roared with a savage, deafening force.
It felt like the forest had awakened, moaning, creaking, and crying with the voices of lost souls.
Inside a crumbling cottage on the forest's edge, an old man sat hunched near a dying fire. Ninety winters had bowed his back, stolen his teeth, and painted his beard white as snow. He was the last of his bloodline
Thalia.
His granddaughter. Sixteen, radiant, and once the light of his final years. But she was gone, vanished days ago, as if swallowed by the forest itself.
He had searched every trail, cried her name to the trees, the wind, even the wolves. No sign. No body. No blood. Just silence. The dreadful kind that creeps into your bones and tells you you're truly alone.
Had she run off with a lover? Perished in some unseen tragedy? Or worse-abandoned him?
"Oh, Thalia," he whispered brokenly. "Why did you leave me? Who will care for me now? Who will close my eyes when death comes?"
His voice cracked. Tears slid down a face already carved with sorrow. That's when it came-a knock. Loud. Sudden. Impossible.
The old man struggled to his feet, heart pounding. He opened the door.
A tall man stood before him. Around forty. His clothes-rich but worn. His blond hair-long and wild. His blue eyes-haunted. Something about him was... off. He radiated sorrow, like it clung to him.
The old man gestured him inside without a word.
He offered food. The stranger didn't touch it.
The storm raged harder. Thunder boomed directly overhead, shaking the cottage. The stranger flinched, his face contorted in agony. The old man reached for a crucifix above the hearth, but the guest raised a commanding hand-his authority sharp, undeniable.
The old man froze.
"You tremble at the storm?" he asked gently.
"I am unhappy," the stranger replied, his voice tight. "And so are you."
The old man told him-briefly, painfully-of Thalia.
The stranger listened, then spoke slowly. "You are alone. Forgotten. If you died now, wolves would find your corpse before anyone else. You'd rot, unmourned."
The old man shivered. "Why do you speak such terrible things? Who are you?"
Thunder cracked again. The man didn't answer.
Instead, he offered something impossible.
"I can make you young again," he said. "Strong. Handsome. Rich. Intelligent beyond anything you've ever known. All I ask is that you walk beside me-for eighteen months. At the end, we part. Forever."
The old man's heart pounded. "And the price?"
"There are two conditions," the stranger replied, eyes dark. "First: you remain by my side, obeying me, until sunset on of the eighteenth month. Second... you must prey upon the human race."
The old man recoiled. "What does that mean?"
The stranger leaned closer. "Do you know the legend of the Were-Wolf?"
The old man's blood turned cold. "I've heard tales... of cursed men who become wolves at night."
"At sunset on the last day of each month," the stranger said, "the cursed take the form of the beast. They remain that way until dawn."
"And this... this is the condition?"
"It is."
The silence stretched. The storm outside echoed the old man's thoughts-violent, chaotic, unstoppable.
"I accept," the old man whispered. "I have nothing left. No one."
"Good," the stranger said. "Elias, your time begins now."
Elias stiffened. "You know my name..."
The stranger smiled grimly. "I know much more. Wait here."
He disappeared into the night.
